1. The decision by all four broadcast networks to interrupt prime time for an explicitly political speech from Trump was a major break from precedent.
Biden and Obama were denied time in similar circumstances.
Trump gets special treatment.

2. In 2014, major networks also refused to air a speech by Obama about immigration reform, claiming it was too "partisan."
In 2022, broadcast networks declined to air a prime time speech by Biden on threats to democracy, saying it was too "political"

Yosef interprets the dreams to mean that seven years of plenty will be followed by seven years of hunger, and advises Pharaoh to store grain during the plentiful years. Pharaoh appoints Yosef governor of Egypt.

LOTR: THE TWO TOWERS was released 23 years ago today. The second entry in Peter Jackson's fantasy trilogy and acclaimed as one of the great movie sequels, the story of how it was made is as epic as the film. So it begins…

The whole trilogy was filmed across an epic 15-month shoot in New Zealand where all films were shot back-to-back. As such, most of the cast returned from the first film. As did most of the massive 3000-strong production crew.

Viggo Mortensen, back as Aragorn, formed such a strong bond with the horse he rode on set that he bought him from the owners. The horse was called Brego and Mortensen also bought a second horse so Brego would have a friend.

🧵(a thread) Why Samsung's Silver Solid-State Battery Tech is a Game-Changer for Silver – And Sets a Permanent Price Floor (Something Bitcoin Lacks)
1/12 Samsung's all-solid-state EV battery uses a silver-carbon (Ag-C) composite anode. It's not hype – this tech is advancing toward mass production in 2027 and could transform silver from a precious metal into a critical industrial powerhouse.
As of December 18, 2025, silver is trading around $66–67/oz, hitting record highs amid structural deficits. But this battery could create a true price floor. Let's break it down. 👇

Why is this tech favored?
Ultra-high energy density (~900 Wh/L, nearly double current Li-ion)
1) 9-minute ultra-fast charging
2) 600–900 mile range per charge
3) 1,000+ cycles & projected 20-year lifespan
4) Superior safety (solid electrolyte prevents fires/dendrites)
The thin Ag-C layer enables uniform lithium plating – silver's conductivity is key.

Silver demand impact: Estimates:
~1 kg silver per 100 kWh pack (prototype-based; optimizations may reduce to 300–500g, but still massive at scale).
EV market: 17M+ sold in 2025, heading to 30M+/year by 2030.
If just 20% adopt Ag-based solid-state: 16,000+ tonnes new annual silver demand.
Current global mine supply: ~25,000 tonnes. This is disruptive.

Yesterday, we published the latest RedHorizon update, and below is a summary of the key developments from last week. This will be a long thread.
Let’s start with Ukraine.
Let’s start with Ukraine.
We continue to assess that the war has entered its most operationally precarious phase to date. Russian forces maintain the initiative across much of the front and, aside from limited Ukrainian gains—particularly around Kupyansk—the Ukrainian Armed Forces appear exposed on several axes.
The Hulyaipole axis remains the most threatened. Although Russian gains there were limited last week—amounting to roughly 7 sq km—they were operationally significant. Russian forces crossed the Yanchur River within the city at at least two locations and succeeded in dislodging Ukrainian defenders from most of Hulyaipole.

Russian forces crossed the Yanchur River within the city at at least two locations and succeeded in dislodging Ukrainian defenders from most of Hulyaipole.
Turning to Pokrovsk, since late November, we have assessed that Ukraine has been unable to resupply its forces in Myrnohrad by ground, with logistics increasingly reliant on UAS. The situation in the city remains dire and continues to trend toward full Russian capture. Based on our observations, the deployment of the 76th Guards Airborne Division has accelerated Russian progress. Absent a Ukrainian counterattack, Russian forces are likely to seize the city within the next two weeks. Last week alone, Russian forces captured approximately 21 sq km around Pokrovsk and Myrnohrad, with further gains likely this week. A persistent feature of Russian operations, however, remains their inability to exploit tactical success through the timely commitment of echeloned forces to translate local gains into broader operational breakthroughs.

First things first: What exactly is a Commodity ETF??
It’s a fund that tracks the price of physical goods like precious metals or energy. You buy and sell it on the stock exchange just like a normal stock, getting price exposure without the hassle of storage.

How??
1 of 3 way:
📦 Physically backed: The fund owns the actual gold bars in a vault.
📝 Futures-based: The fund uses contracts to bet on future prices.
⛏️ Equity-based: The fund buys stocks of mining or oil companies.
